Please don't put the fake bullet holes on! That is a trend with PT buyers in my area. I see them on cruisers all the time. There is also a guy where I work that has them stuck all over his rust bucket F-150.

Love The Color!!

I bought a 2LT with Majestic Amethyst and am thrilled with the color. And I am definitely NOT a girl. I was not looking for this color originally (based on pictures on website) until I saw it at the dealership.

The color is very unique and, as others have said, changes colors depending on the lighting conditions. It can appear light bluish-purple in direct sunlight to dark grey in dusk/overcast, etc. As a consequence, it's also pretty hard to photograph accurately. Definitely see worth seeing it in person.

The color looks better on overcast days. The spoiler was not mentioned on the build sheet so I know it had to be added by the dealership. Now they have also added running boards and chip deflectors trying to sell it.

You like that? The spoiler doesn't match the style of the vehicle. It looks like it belongs on a Civic. The parts guy at my dealership tried selling me one and when I told him flat out that I thought it is ugly he tried telling me that I should buy it just to keep snow off of my rear window. You have got to love salesmen.

I just looked at mine and ya know, on second thought I like mine with just the roof rails. That spoiler is kinda wack.

I'm not a big fan of purple but I have seen a couple of nice dark purple older cars that I have liked. My former neighbor had a dark purple 68' Camaro and it looked nice.
I HAPPEN TO BE A MAN AND 65 YEARS YOUNG AND DONT SEE HOW U THINK IT IS UGLY, IT REALLY SHINES WHEN WASHED , I TOOK IT RITE OFF THE SHOW ROOM FLOOR. O I FORGOT MY WIFE IS A RED HATTER AND IT FITS PREFECTILLY WITH HER PURPLE OUTFIT, I'M SURE YOU YOUNGSTERS DONT NO WHAT RED HATTERS ARE, OR DO YOU.?
